Sometimes it's tough to tell when people are joking and I don't really recall you being the sarcastic type so I just took it as being completely ignorant.

And the worst is still about six to eight hours away.

Coastal areas are already being battered heavily, and we're still hours from landfall. This does seem like the most serious hurricane we've had in a while.
 
Honestly, I'd guess it's only rained about an inch and a half so far. The rain hasn't been too bad. But it will be. As will the winds which will kick up another 30-40 mph. And once high tide hits. Oh boy. Thank God I live three miles from the beach.
 
Anyone up for a good ol' treasure hunt? According to my calculations, there's $20,941,312,000 worth of gold to be hunted.

MOSCOW (AP) — A vessel with a nine-person crew and 700 tons of gold ore onboard has gone missing in stormy seas off Russia's Pacific Coast.

The ship sent a distress call on Sunday as it was sailing from the coastal town of Neran to Feklistov Island in the Sea of Okhotsk.

The vessel, hired by mining company Polymetal, was carrying 700 tons of gold ore from one deposit to another where it was to be processed. Gold ore is the material from which gold is extracted and contains only a small percentage of the precious metal.

Polymetal's spokesman on Monday would not estimate the value of the cargo.

The company said it has shipped ore via that route before, and there was nothing unusual in shipping it by the sea.

Um, people living by the coast should have evacuated...
